Description
Albourne Place is a large, L-shaped mansion. The interior dates from the 16th and early 17th centuries, but the exterior was rebuilt in the mid-17th century by John Juxon, brother of Archbishop William Juxon. The house is constructed of red brick with long and short brick quoins. Pilasters are located at each west bay. It has a slate roof, and features casement windows with stone mullions and transoms, with architraves above the ground-floor windows. A rusticated brick doorway is situated on the east front, featuring a tall, rectangular fanlight divided into two sections by a wooden mullion, and a fine door consisting of 14 fielded panels. The interior contains a good staircase and panelling. A hiding-place, recently discovered, is present following the period when Archbishop Juxon took refuge there during the Commonwealth.
An east or office wing forms a right angle with the main block, with dimensions of two bays south and three bays west. The main block connects to the former stables, now a dwelling, via a flanking wall containing a moulded, panelled door. The stables are a similar building, also with dimensions of two bays south and three bays west, with a roof constructed of a mix of Horsham slabs and tiles. The interior of the stables and offices contains partly 15th-century features. The property was described in Country Life on 13th September 1924.
